Configuring Static Pinning for an Interface

Step 6
Step 7
This example shows how to configure Network State Tracking with an 8-second interval between each sent
broadcast, repinning traffic to another uplink if a split network is detected, and a maximum of 7 missed
broadcasts before declaring a split network:
switch# configure terminal
switch(config)# track network-state enable
switch(config)# track network-state interval 8
switch(config)# track network-state split action repin
switch(config)# track network-state threshold miss-count 7
switch(config)# show network-state tracking config
Tracking mode
Tracking Interval
Miss count threshold : 7 pkts
Split-network action : repin
switch(config)#
Configuring Static Pinning for an Interface
You can configure static pinning on a vEthernet interface.
You can also pin a subgroup to a vEthernet interface in the port profile configuration. See

Purpose
(Optional)
Displays the Network State Tracking configuration for
verification.
(Optional)
Saves the change persistently through reboots and restarts
by copying the running configuration to the startup
configuration.
Purpose
Enters global configuration mode.
Enters interface configuration mode for the specified
interface (from 1 to 1048575).
Assigns (or pins) a vEthernet interface to a specific
port channel subgroup (from 0 to 31).
